Heat can have adverse effects on different types of prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs. Medications often become less potent after being transported in extreme conditions. Checking the label of almost any medicine will reveal that it should be stored at room temperature, but most consumers are unaware of what takes place when these goods are moved between locations. Pallets are often removed from an airplane, only to sit out on a hot tarmac while waiting to be loaded onto another vehicle. Logistics companies have multiple options available to protect these shipments like pallet covers, but failing to use them may result in consumers receiving medications that produce side-effects.
Ensure Goods Stay At A Constant Temperature With These Devices
1. Sure-Temp Bubble Foil Container Blanket
People in the shipping industry don’t have time to waste. It seems like everything is going at 90 miles-per-hour, and having to spend precious minutes covering cargo brings the process to a crawl. This blanket is lightweight to prevent users from becoming fatigued during the installation. It comes equipped with a proprietary magnetic pulley system that prevents the person from having to fight and unroll the unit like with conventional coverings. The outer shell is constructed of metalized aluminum film. It is laminated to polyethylene bubbles that become filled with air to keep items thoroughly insulated. Medicines in powder, liquid, capsule, or pill form continually cycling between hot and cold will be less effective than what they are supposed to be, so wrap your shipment with a Sure-Temp blanket to keep them in perfect condition.
2. Sure-Temp Elite Container Blanket
This blanket is built to last, and it has an average lifespan of between 7 and 10 years. It comes with hollow fiber insulation that offers maximum thermal efficiency. The outer shell is woven polyethylene, which comes heat sealed to a poly coated foil. It blocks radiation, convection, and conduction while protecting items against freezing or heat damage. This container blanket is also simple to install, and it folds up nicely to prevent the device from taking up too much space when it’s in storage. It is an ideal choice for covering beverages, foods, medications, and countless other items. Give one of our professional team members a call to discuss leasing options.
